Intent to Destroy

Intent to Destroy

20th TDF: Greek premiere

Drawing the curtain on mass murder censorship in Hollywood and gaining unrestricted on-set access to the first mainstream film about the Armenian Genocide, Joe Berlinger explores the obfuscation of historical events and the cultural suppression Turkey has supported to promote their version of history; with his own film tools, he highlights the importance of producing a meaningful, big-budget film in an environment rife with political suppression and threats of retaliation.
